I’m beri serious chornalist.
Our otherwise stolid driver in Dubai suddenly blasted Gasolina while we were dune bashing. Baka inaantok na siya. Eh di sumayaw ako. Ayun natawa siya 😭
Note: Filmed in Dubai before the recent airstrikes in the region. Our thoughts are with those affected.
Watch #CityofGold on I-Witness tomorrow!
Na para bang marunong siya sumayaw. #CityofGold airs this Saturday on I-Witness.
Note: This footage was filmed in Dubai before the recent airstrikes in the Middle East. Our thoughts are with everyone affected.

Pahabol sa 2016 nostalgia. Sitting around today, I realized, I really HAD a year. I traveled a bit, had some excruciatingly good experiences, spent time with unforgettable people, grew, stumbled, and took some photos along the way.
It was, without a doubt, a year. And it’s bittersweet to see how far we’ve come.
Here’s to looking back at 2026, ten years from now, with the same kind of fondness.

Salamat, @esquireph and Explore Philippines for the phowtoes!
Nakumbinse ako ng kapatid kong mag kite boarding lessons sa Boracay, kasabay niya. May bonus pang pa video si Ate (with matching commentary) nung makasampa ako sa board for a few glorious seconds. Siyempre ang inaabangan talaga niya yung inevitable faceplant ko sa tubig 😭
Salamat sa magaling kong instructor mula sa @islakite_boracay . Babalik akooo!🪁
Storytime. Paminsan-minsan, nadadaan ako sa isang shop sa Trinoma kung saan palagi akong binabati ng isang security guard. Kapag may nakakahuntahan akong mga kababayan sa labas, kadalasan napupunta ang usapan sa mga recent documentaries ko o kung ano man ang naging viral sa social media.
Pero si SG Anecito, iisa lang ang laging sinasabi: gusto raw niyang magkaroon ng kopya ng libro ko. Noong una, akala ko chika lang. Pero sa pangalawa, pangatlo, pang-apat na beses, yun parin ang bukambibig niya.
Kaya nung isang araw, nang makita ko ulit ang nakangiting SG, inabutan ko na siya ng libro. Personal din sa akin ’yon. Dahil sa totoo lang, para talaga sa mga tulad ni Anecito ang aklat — mga taong nagsisikap, kumakayod para sa pamilya, lumalaban nang patas, at hindi nagpapakasasa sa kickback mula sa flood control projects (naisingit pa talaga. Gigil lang ng very light).
Sana magustuhan ni Anecito ang libro.
Segue: available na ulit ang A View From the Ground sa UP Press website

Soon, sana, sa ilang bookstores din.
